Part One: Catesby Holmes is the global affairs editor at theconversation. com. She joins us to talk about Brazil – how the right wing politician Jair Bolonsaro came to be elected, and what that means for Brazil. Bolsonaro is an angry populist (sound familiar?) backed by evangelicals.
Part Two: The political world has suddenly discovered Iowa Congressman Steve King, whose racist rhetoric has become impossible to ignore. We speak about King and his political history with Dr. Dennis Golford, Chair of the Political Science Dept. at Drake University in Des Moines.
